And the water to fall !, a photo from Midi-Pyrenees, South

Photographer's Note

The most visited and admired waterfall on the heights of the Cauterets valley. An autumnal view of the Pont d'Espagne waterfall ... and the swirling, noisy and splashing water tumbling down then tumbling down through narrow gorges. Of course, when the snow melts in late spring, its flow is more impressive.

Salut Jean,
Bonne vue sur la cascade sur toute sa longueur.
Belle comme l'eau se fraye un chemin entre les pentes rocheuses boisées.
Bonne inclusion des visiteurs encore plus proches de la cascade.
Amicalement, Paul

Hello Jean,
A great vertical photo of the many larger and smaller waterfalls here finding their way across the rocks. The white, silky look of the water stands out well from the darker surroundings.

Hello Jean,
A well composed and nicely cropped view of the water falling smoothly down the rocks. The persons wearing red add bright and contrasting colours, as well a sense of dimensions.
Regards,
Gert

Hi Jean
That's wonderful view of a huge waterfall in its natural surrounding and natural colours taken from an interesting angle. The soft feel of cascading water can sometimes be hypnotizing, and the eye-popping red colour is the right dose to entice the eye. Excellent shot
Best regards

Bonjour Jean,
very impressive waterfall indeed. The people down there seem to have a great POV but you probably have even better overview over the whole waterfall, and the red dressed tourists give you a nice scale markers.
The weather didn't spoil you but the final effect is still spectacular,

Hello Jean,

What an excellent viewpoint you chose!
That couple in red become an immediate and very well placed focal point, and the diagonal of the silvery, flowing water guides straight to them!
The small trickle of water, on our left, somehow convinces us that the couple are not in danger, that the water is avoiding them!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Jean,

Les personnes avec les manteaux de couleurs attirent le regard. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails de la chute Pont d'Espagne. Il y a un bon contraste entre les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journée.

Salut Jean,

A spectacular waterfall and well composed. I am just missing a little bit more sharpness. The lookout and hikers at right add a strong focal point. Tfs!

Bonjour Jean,
Seeing the place on Google-map virtual tour, shows a several levels of an observation balconies and a green-painted steel bridge from where I assume taken this picture (There is a nother old stones-bridge on the road backwards from this spot).
The sight is awesome andI can imagine the water roar downfall's.
magnificent nature picture, bravo.
Wish you a nice weekend,
Ike

Bonjour, cher Jean,
Toujours à la recherche du beau pour notre plus grand plaisir.
Ici, difficile d'être déçu par la beauté des lieux.
J'imagine le bruit assourdissant provoqué par cette cascade.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hi Jean,

Nice photo of this waterfall shown here. Where I live is a very mountainous region with a lot of springs from small streams, so we also have dozens of waterfalls on the outskirts of the city. In the summer some people risk taking a bath, but even on very hot days the waters of these small streams are very cold.

Your photo was very good, a pity that you didn't get a moment of sunshine, because I have no doubt that it would actually look much better.

Greetings from Brazil

Bonjour Jean, an excellent viewpoint that shows the height of the waterfall as it emerges at the top of the frame.
The two people in their brightly coloured jackets are an excellent alternative focal point, and balance the composition really well.
Lovely work.
Thanks for sharing, kind regards, Jean.

Hi Jean.
Fantastic these waterfalls that slide and fall in jumps of different heights, giving a great charm among the pines, the situation of that viewpoint is ideal, the two people in red give us the scale of the great natural scenery.
Very well done. My congratulations.
All the best and have a good start to the week.
Luis.
